Steps

1

Make the dough:mix the ingreds for dough(except for coating ingreds).flour,butter,salt,suger,milk- water combi,Baking powder,vanilla/cardamom.than knead or mix til collects together nicely,and is pinchable.cover with cling film and refrigerate,(as this can be premade, this helps in time saving)for until ready to cut and fry,!
2

Get helping hand if you can
3

Once out of fridge re shuffle again and divide dough in half so can have more working/rolling space. make a disk not too thick or thin(1 cm long and half cm deep),Then cut strips diagonally to make diamond shapes or can experiment with other shapes if prefer or like to go the extra mile!.mean while heat oil thru, in a medium deep frying pan
4

Once the little shapes are made,now start frying in batches and remove to cool.complete with remaining dough
5

Then now let cool inorder to apply the suger syrupy coating.there is variations to this nut the family favorate are plain suger crystalysing coat or sticky coat/more of a glazy coat.this just depends on suger water ratios as well as heating.
6

So for crystal one,use about half cup suger to less then quater cup water.(but please review as required!),because its according to taste realy.make it more thick and bubbling boiling (carefulvery hot).can use metal or woodenspoon check consistancy.
7

For sticky syrup use thinner ie bit more water then suger ratio
